The Beatles Legend began in 1962 in Hamburg here contemporaries from those early days have their say: Among them Tony Sheridan and many friends and fellow musicians who have become part of the legend, including friend of The Beatles Klaus Voormann, photographer Astrid Kirchherr, Tony Sheridan’s Manager Horst Fascher and last but not least Allan Williams - The Man who gave The Beatles away… THE BEGINNINGS IN HAMBURG: A DOCUMENTARY is a documentary which, through interviews and vintage footage, tells the story of Tony Sheridan and how he gave the biggest rock band of all time its first break in the recording studio. This DVD purports to document The Beatles’ early years in Hamburg, Germany, when Allen Williams, the group’s first manager, booked them to play strip-bars-turned-beat-clubs in that city’s red light district. According to legend, the band honed their on-stage appeal and thoroughly mastered their repertoire through being forced to play marathon sets every night of the week for rough, drunken crowds. During their stretches in Hamburg, they befriended fellow Liverpudlian Tony Sheridan, a marginally successful English rock and roller who built his career on doing a passable Elvis impersonation. Sheridan was renowned enough in Germany. The lion’s share of this documentary is taken up with playing recordings with Tony Sheridan in full. It ultimately only tangentially concerns The Beatles. It’s basically a Tony Sheridan retrospective. There’s not a single moment of Beatles footage on the DVD. While Sheridan’s songs play, the camera pans around a few dozen black and white still photos of The Beatles and Sheridan in Hamburg — most of which are very familiar from other Beatles documentaries — with some occasional cheesy editing cuts made to match the music. Not that the songs themselves are bad — they provide fascinating insight into how the gap between the Beatles and Elvis was bridged. It’s fairly a comprehensive collection of the material. Perhaps the best thing about it is the packaging, which comes with some snazzy postcards. Still, all that being said, Beatles enthusiasts will still probably be interested in this as some slivers of new information come to light in these fresh retellings of familiar stories. The DVD also includes new Dolby Digital 5.1 remixes of the Sheridan recordings and preserves the original versions in uncompressed PCM stereo.
